Addressing scope of inference for global genetic evaluation of livestock Direcionamento do âmbito de inferência para avaliação genética global dos animais

Genetic evaluations should become more accurate with the advent of whole genome selection (WGS) based on high density SNP panels. The use of WGS should then accelerate genetic gains for production traits given likely decreases in generation interval due to the greater intent to select more animals b...
